Vizualisation of Land Use, Land cover, and Watershed Size in Hawaii

This project will create an interactive vizual of the land use and land cover types as well as the size of watersheds on all Hawaiian Islands.

Data Sources:

http://geoportal.hawaii.gov/datasets/land-use-land-cover-lulc

http://geoportal.hawaii.gov/datasets/watersheds

Load in the packages we will be using

library(tidyverse)
library(here)
library(janitor)
library(raster)
library(sf)
library(tmap)
library(tmaptools)

Load in the data

lulc<- read_sf(here("lulc_shape", "Land_Use_Land_Cover_LULC.dbf"))
water_shed<- read_sf(here("Watersheds_shape", "Watersheds.dbf"))

Interactive map of Hawaiian Island land cover, land use, and size of watersheds in square miles

hawaii_2<- tm_basemap("CartoDB.DarkMatter")+
  tm_shape(lulc)+
  tm_fill("landcover", legend.show = FALSE)+
  tm_shape(water_shed)+
  tm_dots("area_sqmi", size = 0.05)
